You can do it. Just take small steps,
every day a few more, and in no time you will be there.

Enjoy the process and very soon you
will notice how happy you already are. Because big obstacles are
best resolved with simple and easy solutions, which acted on every
day, lead you to amazing results.

“Happiness is not the absence of
problems, it's the ability to deal with them.”

- Steve Marabol

makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

Come join us. Life is so endlessly delicious.”

- Ruth Reichl

Making nutritious and nourishing food
choices will keep your energy level steady, boost your immunity and
yes even help you sleep better. Don’t overwhelm yourself by trying
to remodel your diet all at once. Small, simple changes add up.
Start listening to your body and note how you feel after eating
different foods. Choose food that raises your energies.

3 HYGIENE

don't look good.”

only place you have to live.”

happy and a productive outlook on life.

people will react positively to you, giving you a more positive life
experience.

“All truly great thoughts are
conceived while walking.”

- Friedrich Nietzsche

“Reflect first upon that great law
of our nature, that exercise is the chief source of improvement in
all our faculties.”

more good for an unhappy but otherwise healthy adult than all the
medicine and psychology in the world.”

for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for
illness.”

All you need to do is exercise 20
minutes a day to reap the happiness benefits.

Make a list of all the activities you
can think of then pick and choose.

with the ones that benefit you most.

5 SPEND TIME OUTSIDE

“O, Sunlight! The most precious
gold to be found on Earth.”

and look upon verdure, is the most perfect refreshment.'"

- Jane Austen, Mansfield Park

you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own
freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will
drop off like autumn leaves."

well-being in several ways:

a) It boosts your mood and gives you
a more positive outlook on life.

concentration.

and is the primary source of vitamin D.

blessings, my whole life turned around.”

shortcuts to finding peace of mind and happiness inside. No matter
what is going on outside of us, there is always something we could
be grateful for.”

- Barry Neil Kaufman

“Give thanks for a little and you
will find a lot.”

- Hansa Proverb

Every day reflect on how much you
have and how lucky you are. Get into the habit of recognising happy
moments. It’s not happiness that brings us gratitude. It’s
gratitude that brings us happiness.

“I alone cannot change the world,
but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”

kind to the poor, for they are alone. Kind to the rich, for they are
afraid. And kind to the unkind, for such is how God has treated me.”

- Max Lucado

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is
fighting a harder battle.”

- Plato

It is important to understand that
others are going through hardship just as much as us. We are all
here to learn certain lessons and we can help others and ourselves
by showing compassion.

8 PATIENCE

“Trees that are slow to grow bear
the best fruit.”

- Molière

“He that can have patience can have
what he will.”

- Benjamin Franklin

“The two hardest tests on the
spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the
courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.”

- Paulo Coelho, Veronika Decides to
Die

Just keep on going and focus on your
aims. Almost anything really good in life takes time and dedication.
Remember, life is not a race but a journey to be savoured each step
of the way. Enjoy it and see where it takes you.

“What is life but one grand
adventure?”

“Attitude is the difference between
an ordeal and an adventure”

- Bob Bitchin

“As soon as I saw you, I knew an
adventure was about to happen.”

See every situation in your life as
an exciting adventure. Observe how the beautiful and miraculous is
always unfolding around us, inviting us to dance and dream together.
See this life for the adventure that it is.

MEDITATION

“Look at everything as though you
were seeing it for the first or the last time, then your time on
earth will be filled with glory.”

- Betty Smith

"You have to leave the city of
your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What
you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is
yourself.”

A happy life is made of happy
moments, so celebrate whenever you can. Not just the traditional
celebrations like birthdays and Christmas, create your own
celebrations, too.

13 ENTERTAINMENT

“Music gives a soul to the
universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to
everything.”

- Plato

“Music... will help dissolve your
perplexities and purify your character and sensibilities, and in
time of care and sorrow, will keep a fountain of joy alive in you.”

- Dietrich Bonhoeffer

“What the mass media offers is not
popular art, but entertainment which is intended to be consumed like
food, forgotten, and replaced by a new dish.”

- W.H. Auden, The Dyer's Hand

“Some books leave us free and some
books make us free.”

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Simply putting on an upbeat
soundtrack or a good comedy will get you into the swing again.

An uplifting book will also serve you
well.

14 DECLUTTER

“Keeping baggage from the past will
leave no room for happiness in the future”

- Wayne L. Misner

“Get rid of clutter and you may
just find that it was blocking the door you’ve been looking for”

- Katrina Maye

“I have found that the temple of
the undistracted mind must be housed in an uncluttered environment.
A basement or garret is invaluable, but they, too, must be
uncluttered, even though they hold many essential things used only
occasionally.”

- American Home, 1945

Don’t let the old clutter weigh you
down. Questions to ask yourself: Do I use it?

Do I really need this? Do I love it?
No? Then it’s time to toss it out.

15 BALANCE OF WORK
AND LEISURE

“Work, love and play are the great
balance wheels of man's being.°

- Orison Swett Marden

“Problems arise in that one has to
find a balance between what people need from you and what you need
for yourself.”

- Jessye Norman

“The key to keeping your balance is
knowing when you've lost it.”

- Anonymous

Fill your days with stuff you love
and stuff you have to do. Just keep in mind that at the end of the
day, you want to feel like "you've accomplished something but
that you've also relaxed.”

16 MAKE LOVE NOT WAR

“There’s a huge difference in sex
and making love. We have sex with someone who can satisfy us
physically, but we make love to someone who can satisfy us soulfully
and eternally. Once you realise the fine-line between making love
and having sex, you will understand the meaning of life! Life isn’t
only about survival, it’s about living and so is making love. We
have sex to satisfy our lust and hunger, which is nothing, but
survival, but we make love to feed our soul and our mind, to fill a
void that is there since a long time, that longs for a partner and
that needs someone whom we want to spend the next morning with!

“When you have sex just for
physical pleasure, you are ashamed and guilty at one point of life
or another, but when you make love to someone who means everything
to you, you are always proud of it. Never in life, not even a single
time, you regret that time and the moments spent with that person.
You will always rejoice it and remember it with equal passion and
joy.”

- Mehek Bassi

“He never knew a single second
could be expanded into something timeless and so archaic. It shook
him to his core – there were no words for it.”

- Dianna Hardy, The Sands Of Time

Making love with your partner
increases well being, mood and happiness. So there's no reason not
to try it right away.

17 SMILE

“Sometimes your joy is the source
of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your
joy.”

- Thich Nhat Hanh

“You'll find that life is still
worthwhile, if you just smile.”

- Charlie Chaplin

“Don't cry because it's over, smile
because it happened.”

- Dr. Seuss

Smile even if you don't feel like it
- your mind will follow your body.
